When running `make coccicheck` in report mode using the add_namespace.cocci file, it will fail for files that contain MODULE_LICENSE. Those match the replacement precondition, but spatch errors out as virtual.ns is not set.
In order to fix that, add the virtual rule nsdeps and only do search and replace if that rule has been explicitly requested.
In order to make spatch happy in report mode, we also need a dummy rule, as otherwise it errors out with "No rules apply". Using a script:python rule appears unrelated and odd, but this is the shortest I could come up with.
Adjust scripts/nsdeps accordingly to set the nsdeps rule when run trough `make nsdeps`.

Very cool. No errors with this patch. Thanks for fixing it quickly.
I am happy I could fix that and thanks for confirming. I assume your Tested-by could be added?
Is somebody willing to take this patch through their tree?
Cheers, Matthias
